Qatar Finance and Business Academy (QFBA) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Morgan International, a leading global provider of professional development and training services.
The collaboration will offer comprehensive training and upskilling solutions to Qatari cadres and organisations, as well as provide consultations and broaden the reach of national educational and training initiatives in the financial services sector, utilising a cutting-edge approach that adheres to the latest scientific standards.
Khalifa al-Salahi al-Yafei, CEO of QFBA, and Fadi Ganni, CEO of Morgan International, signed the MoU.
Al-Yafei expressed delight at signing the MoU, emphasising that it embodies the bonds of co-operation with various prestigious international training institutions, and complements the Academy's efforts to provide specialised training programmes.
This, in turn, will contribute to meeting the evolving labour market needs of Qatari competencies, thus supporting the country's efforts towards building a knowledge-based economy.
Under the MoU, the two parties have agreed to strengthen co-operation in order to broaden the scope of the Academy's open calendar, national development and specialised certification programmes, as well as to provide consultations and customised programmes that would meet the needs of the community and institutions involved with financial services in Qatar, and to exchange experiences and information between the two parties when appropriate.
This is in addition to identifying and investigating any other areas of mutual interest.
"According to the MoU, co-operation between the two parties will be strengthened by leveraging Morgan International's expertise and capabilities in developing, organising, managing and implementing programmes and training courses to qualify cadres working in financial and banking specialities," al-Yafei added.
Ganni expressed enthusiasm about the co-operation, and said: “We are eager about harnessing Morgan International's expertise to provide cadres and organisations in Qatar with a seamless learning experience. Our aim is to equip professionals with the essential skills and competencies necessary to excel in the dynamic and competitive business environment of today."
